To the left is the
classic photograph which has not only been reproduced a myriad times by
structural geologists the world over, they have also looked forward to
similar patterns in their own field areas. This is the photograph that
Prof John Graham Ramsay,
FRS, took in 1956 in the Loch Monar
area of the famous Caledonian Scottish Highlands. The superimposition of
this type, as well known to all, results when the hinges and axial
surfaces are both folded about the axes of late folds. A typical
"mushroom" would however result when the hinges of early folds are folded
about axes and axial surfaces of late folds that nearly lie transverse or
subperpendicular to them. Below is a map of pattern covering an enormous
area (25 by 18 km) in the early Proterozoic Aravalli mobile belt in
western India. The map* (done up in 1936 and called HAMMER-HEAD syncline)
is reproduced after Dr A M
Heron of Geological Survey of India
(who passed away in 1964 in transit on way to New Delhi to attend
the International Geological Congress).
*later mapped in great details by
Late Prof K Naha, FNA
and his students (see bottom in this
column). Click this image to begin download in Format 2. Immediately
below is the screenshot of page 56 of the book which describes the
aspects of noncylindrical folds.
